Glossybox August 2016 ~ charged me $42 for a $21 box / called them again and say they have fixed it

Not terribly happy with Glossybox – watch the video to find out why.  I had to call then again today, and they had to re-create the two boxes I was told by the last person would ship, and did not. So now, hopefully the bonus boxes will ship. (It’s a good thing I had the day off work to make calls.) They are currently out of the July boxes and I didn’t like the August box enough to get another August box, so we’ll see how September is. Most of the stuff in this box is sample/travel size.



Here’s what was in this box:

Invisibobble hair rings – full size $6
Too Faced Mascara Melt Off – sample 0.04 oz – full size is 0.23 oz for $17  - RV $3
Trifle Cosmetics Lip Parfait Buttery Lip Cream - $19
De Bruyers After Sun Lotion – full size - $12
Borghese Fango Delicato – 1 oz travel size – full size is 7 oz for $35 – RV $5
Wella Professionals Oil Reflections Smoothing Oil  – 1 oz travel size – full size is $20 – RV $6

Total RV (retail value) for this box = $51
This is so poor in comparison to Boxycharm (link below) where I always get $100 or more RV for my $21

Unboxing ~ Glossybox July 2016 ~ I was truly amazed

I became a semi-accidental subscriber to Glossybox – I subscribed due to a great discount and thought I could just get one box, but then ended up with another before formal cancellation could be completed. Since doing this unboxing I have subscribed again. So we’ll see what the upcoming months bring. Some non-cruelty free items will end up in swap.

Watch my YouTube video

Here’s what was in the July Glossybox – the first 3 are cruelty free, 4th & 5th are unknown, 6th, Nuxe, is cruelty free in France where it is manufactured, but sells in China:

Eyeko Fat Stick in Satin - full size - $12
Glov Quick Treat – finger size makeup remover - $5
Too Faced Melted liquid lipstick in Chihuahua - 0.14 oz travel size (worth $7) - full size is 0.4 oz $21
Leighton Denny Miracle Mist nail polish spray – full size - $16
Fango Essenziali mask – 1 mask $7
Nuxe Dry Oil Huille Prodigieuse – full size - $45

I am absolutely amazed by these products and the overall value of this box = $92

Unboxing ~ Glossybox June 2016 [received in July] first and 2nd to last...

Welcome back to my channel. Thanks for joining me for my June 2016 Glossybox unboxing (it was sent to me in early July) – this is a fabulous box, but sadly most of the box is not cruelty free, so most of the items I this box were already put up for trade. I subscribed to this box when I found a deep discount code and did get it for a great price. Three hours later I tried to unsubscribe, but found out that I had committed myself to another box. So of course, now I’m getting the July box as well.

Watch my YouTube video


Products in this box – the top two are the only ones that are cruelty free per my research:

Icona Milano Emotion Allowed Mascara - full size $19
LA Splash Lip Lacquer High Pigment collection - full size $18
Sebastian Shaper Fierce Hair Spray – travel size – full size is $19
Sebastian hair oil sample tube – no value
Sinful Colors Nail Polish – full size $3.00
Vichy Thermal Spa Water – this travel size goes for $9.99 on Amazon
Caolin Premium Hot & Cool Poor pack due - ?full size - $30
